The Callisto Protocol was announced during The Game Awards late last year and is looking to be the Dead Space successor we never got. It's even being helmed by Glen Schofield, the creator of the Dead Space series. Now it seems to be bringing on some more talent to help work on the project.

Originally, the game was being worked on by Striking Distance Studios, a new developer created by Schofield himself. To help assist, Skybound Games has now been signed on to also assist in its development. They're most known for working on the final two episodes of The Walking Dead: The Final Season, after the collapse of Telltale Games.

The first trailer was genuinely terrifying, showing many inspirations from Dead Space in its environment and art design. If it resembles anything of the series, then colour us intrigued.
